How much does chimney cleaning cost?

A standard chimney sweep with Level 1 inspection typically runs $189 to $350 depending on chimney height, access, and creosote level. We provide a firm price before we start, never a surprise invoice.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. We carry full general liability and workers' compensation insurance in every state we serve. Our technicians are CSIA-trained and NJ-licensed for masonry and mechanical work.

Do you offer same-week appointments?

In most of New Jersey, yes. Peak season (September: December) books quickly, so schedule early. Emergency service is available for chimney fires and animal removal.

Will you make a mess in my house?

No. We drop-cloth the entire work area, seal the fireplace opening, and run a HEPA vacuum during the sweep. Your hearth is cleaner when we leave than when we arrived.

Do you service gas fireplaces too?

Absolutely. Gas fireplaces need annual inspection for burner integrity, glass cleaning, and vent verification even though they don't produce creosote.
